Freescale MPC837xE-RDB Board
-----------------------------------------
1. Board Description
The MPC837xE-RDB are reference boards featuring the Freescale MPC8377E,
MPC8378E, and the MPC8379E processors in a Mini-ITX form factor.
The MPC837xE-RDB's have the following common features:
A) 256-MBytes on-board DDR2 unbuffered SDRAM
B) 8-Mbytes NOR Flash
C) 32-MBytes NAND Flash
D) 1 Secure Digital High Speed Card (SDHC) Interface
E) 1 Gigabit Ethernet
F) 5-port Ethernet switch (Vitesse 7385)
G) 1 32-bit, 3.3 V, PCI slot
H) 1 32-bit, 3.3 V, Mini-PCI slot
I) 4-port USB 2.0 Hub
J) 1-port OTG USB
K) 2 serial ports (top main console)
L) on board Oscillator: 66M
The MPC837xE-RDB's have the following differences:
MPC8377E-RDB MPC8378E-RDB MPC8379E-RDB
SATA controllers 2 0 4
PCI-Express (mini) 2 2 0
SGMII Ports 0 2 0
2. Memory Map
